Sir Isaac Newton's work was the best of the Scientific Revolution, he improved mathematics, astronomy, and physics to derive a comprehensive understanding of the physical world. Johannes Kepler made his laws of planetary motion in 1618. Galileo determined the laws of gravity and explored the laws of motion on earth. Newton first made the laws of motion and linked them with Kepler's laws of planetary motion. Before Newton, no one had demonstrated conclusively that the movements of heavenly bodies were related to terrestrial physics. Galileo had suggested this, but was censored by the Church before he was able to do further work to prove his theories.The first step in Newton's work was to solidify the laws of motion that Galieo had studied.. The first law states that a body at rest tends to stay at rest; a body in motion tends to stay in motion unless compelled to change by an applied force. The second law states that the change in motion is proportional to the applied force and takes place in the straight line by which that force is applied. The final law states that for every action there is an equal and opposite reaction. Armed with these solidified theories of dynamics, Newton proved that the force that acted on planets and moons was the same force that caused a stone to fall to the ground: gravity. He first demonstrated this by calculating that if one extended the same gravitational force that acted on objects on the surface of the Earth to the distance of the moon, it predicted nearly exactly the same orbit that was observed.In 1687, Newton set forth his findings in the most respected scientific work of all time, Philosphia Naturalis Principia Mathematica,better known as thePrincipia. This work established a model of the structure and functions of the universe based on universal gravitation which remains in use today, confirmed generation after generation by observation and calculation. The scientific community immediately recognized Newton's findings as revolutionary and proven with such clarity and logic as to be nearly indisputable by rational argument. Gradually, his mechanical analysis of the heavens became widely known, and accepted as the basis for all future astronomy.
